Fast smoothing on diamond surface by inductively coupled plasma reactive ion etching
The synergetic effects of surface smoothing exhibited during the inductively coupled plasma reactive ion etching (ICP-RIE) of free-standing polycrystalline diamonds (PCDs) were investigated. Changing the assis...

Dual-network design to enhance the properties of agar aerogel adsorbent by incorporating in situ ion cross-linked alginate
Natural and synthetic adsorbents are used to remove contaminants from polluted waters. In particular, polymer-based aerogels are promising but their adsorption capacity and dimensional stability should be impr...

An Improved PSO Algorithm with an Area-Oriented Learning Strategy
The classical particle swarm optimization (PSO) trains the particles to move toward the global best particle in every iteration. So, it has a great possibility of being trapped into local optima. To deal with ...
